Because as it's in-use system, such facts should be there in manual (as I already started to worry a lot looking at my simple program, which opens and closes shreds; now I just unchuck).<br> <br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"> It has also been discussed other types of GC. A problem with a collecting GC is that it must work with the perfect timing that ChucK has, which syncs every sample time (at about 44 kHz).</blockquote><div> </div><div>Google Go, in nearby future, should have very powerful multithreaded GC.<br> <br>As it's also nice language otherwise, it could be an idea to make version of Chuck, which is partially implemented in Google Go (or even fully)? AFAIK it'll be more powerful thing than C++ - I mean, simpler, but not much lesser. <br> <br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"><div><div class="h5"> On 6 Sep 2010, at 21:52, Tambet wrote:<br> <br> <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"> Hi again!<br> <br> As Chuck lacks garbage collection, it's probably The language, which needs a manual about garbage collection - I mean, a manual about lack of it.<br> <br> Googling "chuck programming garbage collection" gives these pages:<br> • The Ultimate Top 25 Chuck Norris “The Programmer” Jokes<br> • Chuck Esterbrook: Geek of the Week<br> • Java Programming - Hump Day OT<br> It would be good to know, how much memory things take, how to keep memory from growing full etc. For example - if I close something, will it release memory?<br> <br> Tambet<br> </blockquote> <br> <br> <br> </div></div></blockquote></div><br></body></html>
